"the new york times" reports the president told democratic donors at a private fund-raiser in texas, quote, that senator bernie sanders of vermont was nearing the point of which -- at which his campaign against hillary clinton would end and that the party must soon come together to back her. sanders responded to those comments last night. >> we have received more votes from people under 30 than secretary clinton and donald trump combined. many states were winning the votes of people under 45. that is the future of america and that is the future of the democratic party, so to suggest we don't fight this out to the end would be, i think, a very bad mistake. >> the white house said the president's comments were meant to stress that success in

ability of the democratic party to come together behind the nominee and he did not indicate or specify a preference in the race. the vermont senator is also offering a critique of the president's supreme court pick. sanders says he strongly supports a nomination of merrick garland but if he wins the election in november he said he would ask the president to withdraw the name. he wants a more progressive justice. this morning, republicans remain yut united in their refusal to consider garland. jan crawford is on capitol hill. jan, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. sanders may have his concerns but there is no evidence that garland would be anything other than a liberal justice, and as he started his visits here on capitol hill, other democrats gave him a warm welcome. garland's first meetings were friendly. starting with a top democrat on the judiciary committee who stepped up the pressure on republicans. >> i think they owe it to their
